`Mike Milken for Treasury Secretary' (Economic Viewpoint, Sept. 5)

"Mike Milken for Treasury Secretary" (Economic Viewpoint, Sept. 5) erroneously referred to Social Security tax fraud committed by Judge Kimba M. Wood, who withdrew from consideration as Attorney General last year. Although Wood employed an illegal alien in 1986, laws then did not prohibit people from hiring such workers. Wood also insisted she paid appropriate Social Security taxes, and there was no evidence to suggest otherwise.
